I bought this vest mainly with mountain hiking in mind and it turned out to be better than I expected. Despite its light weight, it provides excellent warmth, and the ability to pack it into its own pocket is an added plus in terms of practicality.
Pentagon Homer Vest - Cinder Grey
A versatile, high-collared, zip-up sleeveless jacket in Cinder Grey. Crafted entirely from nylon and insulated with synthetic filling. The relaxed fit of the vest conforms to the body while ensuring unrestricted mobility.
durable materials, quilted construction
Constructed with an outer shell and lining crafted from durable nylon, the material is not only tough but also comfortable against the skin. The core features a lightweight synthetic insulation with a weight of 150 g/m2, providing reliable cold-weather protection for the torso. A quilted fit guarantees an even spread of insulation, maximizing thermal performance.
Zipper, high collar
A robust YKK zipper with a chin guard serves as the primary closure. The high stand-up collar shields the neck from wind and enhances thermal insulation. Elastic drawstrings at the hem help block out drafts.
4 practical pockets, compressible
Outfitted with four generous pockets, all secured with zippers:
- two at the hips,
- one positioned on the left chest,
- and one within the interior,
The hip pockets serve as reliable hand warmers in cold conditions. Lined with soft fleece, the interior of the pockets preserves heat and accelerates hand warming. Highly compressible, the vest can be folded to fit inside the left chest pocket, allowing for easy and practical transport.
MJC system
Designed to be compatible with the MJC system (Multiple Jackets Compatibility), the vest can function as an insert in any jacket equipped with this system.

Great product! The vest fits well, the color (7013) is very nice, and the material is of high quality. The lightweight, synthetic insulation with a weight of 150 g/m2 fulfills its function perfectly – a thinner layer would not be sufficient. The ability to fold the vest and store it in one of its pockets is very practical. This is another well-thought-out and solid product from Pentagon. Highly recommended!

The Pentagon Homer vest is a functional, well-designed piece made of quality materials, standing out from similar products with its practical details (wool pockets, packability). It represents an excellent price-value ratio for those looking for a reliable and comfortable vest.

Lightweight vest. Made of nylon, synthetic filling, YKK zippers. Despite the relatively high price, it is worth buying. Provides very good insulation. It can be used as an outer layer on its own or as additional insulation.
-
The vest is warm and very comfortable. It does not restrict freedom of movement while providing very good thermal comfort. For this price, it is a very solid option.
-
Great vest, very well made. + Fabric insert on the collar + Pocket arrangement + Waist drawstrings - The blue color is much lighter than in the picture
-
Very nice material. The quality seems really high. Size S is a bit too tight and size M is quite loose at the waist/abdomen. Nice option to pack the vest into the inner pocket. Exchanging S for M in the store was a very simple and quick process.
-
Here are the pros of the Pentagon Homer Vest: - lightweight and compact - warm - high collar - hip pockets lined with soft fleece on the inside - reliable YKK zipper I really hope that the Pentagon Homer Vest will prove itself from the best side during use :)

A warm, well-sewn vest at an attractive price. Pentagon's sizing can give you a headache. When choosing the right size -L, I based it on the size of another sweatshirt I already had from the same manufacturer, and it was a perfect fit. Fitted. Both the description and the Pentagon website say YKK zippers, but my particular model has Chinese THC zippers (main and pockets). Apart from the insignia on the puller, I don't see any difference in how they work.

I searched for a suitable vest for a long time. The most important thing for me was the "elastic band" at the bottom. Here it's not a thin band that constantly tightens the vest, causing it to ride up on the stomach. Instead, we have a non-intrusive elastic that can be adjusted on the sides with a drawstring. The general workmanship is solid, just like Pentagon products. A big plus for as many as 4 pockets and the ability to compress it into a small pouch (which is actually an inner pocket). Worth its price. Easy to clean, basically with just water.
-
Nice, lightweight vest. You can also wear it under a jacket. Conveniently placed pockets. A fabric insert on the collar, so the neck doesn't stick to the polyester :-) I usually buy XL sizes, but here L fits.

Great for cold and frosty days, functional, fitted, and good under fleece...
-
